Geography Homework Chapter - 2, Physical Features of India 1. Distinguish between the Western Ghats and Eastern Ghats 2. Explain the Coastal Plains of India​

Answer 1

Answer:

Your long answer is here...

1. The Western Ghats runs parallel to the western coast in a north-south direction from the Tapi River to Kanyakumari. But the Eastern Ghats runs in a north-east to a south-west direction parallel to the eastern coast from Orissa to the Nilgiri hills. Western Ghat’s average width is 50 to 80 km. But Eastern Ghat’s width varying from 100 to 200 km. The Western Ghats is a source of many large rivers which flow in Peninsular India. But no big river originates from the Eastern Ghats. The Western Ghats is almost perpendicular to the south-west monsoons coming from the Arabian Sea and causes heavy rainfall in the western coastal plain. But the Eastern Ghats is almost parallel to the monsoons coming from the Bay of Bengal and does not cause much rainfall. The Western Ghats continuous and can be crossed through passes only. But the Eastern Ghats has been divided into several parts by large rivers. Western Ghats average elevation is 900 to 1,100 meters above sea-level. But the average elevation of Eastern Ghats is about 600 metres above sea level.

2. A coastal plain is flat, low-lying land adjacent to a sea coast. Some of the largest coastal plains are in Alaska and the southeastern United States.[1] The Gulf Coastal Plain of North America extends northwards from the Gulf of Mexico along the Lower Mississippi River to the Ohio River, which is a distance of about 981 miles (1,579 km).

The Coastal Plains of India lie on either side of the Peninsula Plateau, along the western and eastern coasts of India. They extend for about 6,150 km from the Rann of Kutch in the west to West Bengal in the east. They are broadly divided into the Western Coastal Plains and the Eastern Coastal Plains. The two coastal plains meet[citation needed] at Kanyakumari, the southernmost tip of the Indian mainland.
